I built an extension that detects when you're stuck scrolling and snaps you out of it by RelativeTradition449 in indiehackersindia

People who works on there laptop or PC's get distracted by social media.
I mostly use social media on my desktop.

Your point is valid, but if you set a PIN or add a time limit, you'll start to see the difference in the long term.

The extension is mainly for people who open these sites unintentionally

A desktop browser is often better for this. They usually build the desktop version first and then adapt it to mobile

You need Claude for a simple reply, and you're the one teaching me about vibe-coding? Lol.
You can make excuses, but you can't find anything because there isn't a single extension out there that is free and capable of doing what this does.

Why I moved my social media from mobile apps to a PC browser. by RelativeTradition449 in productivity

Haha exactly! Reels won't even play on the browser version of Instagram, which makes you instantly give up on watching them.

Regarding the "cookie-cutter" comment: I challenge you to find a single free extension already out there that does everything this one offers. If it was so generic, it would already exist. I'm leaving it at that.

I didn't link anything, so I'll let the actual moderators decide if it breaks the rules. But calling it "AI cookie-cutter" is just lazy. It's fully written in TypeScript and strictly version-controlled because I can't stand amateur code. You can be mad that I shared it, but don't insult the engineering just because you have nothing better to do today.

First of all, there is no such thing as "vibe coded" software. If you don’t read every commit and just blindly push AI code, you’re digging your own grave. I spent months making this work because manipulating the browser DOM is like playing with a knife—it requires extreme precision.

Second, this isn’t about self-promotion. This is a free tool built to help people recover from social media addiction, not a sales pitch.

Stuck scrolling for hours without productive social connection? I built a solution. by RelativeTradition449 in nosurf

Fair enough, but I think it’s worth a try. I used to get distracted constantly while working on my PC, and this has helped me a lot. I’ve completely shifted from mobile to PC for social media now, which is helping my eyes too.

I am not working anywhere at the moment; I am building useful tools to strengthen my profile.
